Navajo


Collette dress / Behind the Monkey necklace & double ring set / McFadin bag / Shubar boots / other jewellery - Vintage

So I would like you to meet my beautiful new bag, I bought it from Yoyo Buffalo in Leederville. At the time I was supposed to be looking for a pair of boot's for southbound that I could rock out in. I was already so in debt with recent purchases, Although of course that did not stop me, I loved it! You never find amazing pieces like this in Perth so there was no question about it, the bag was mine. Yoyo get's quite a few brands in from America, The McFadin brand is made by two sisters from Texas, and all the leather straps and buckles are made from vintage belts and the majority of the bag is made from Mexican woven Navajo blankets. 
Most of the jewellery I'm wearing is from Behind the Monkey on Beaufort Street. I have compiled a collection of jewellery from there over the years, they have some of the most beautiful jewels. The Stag head necklace I bought from there is only costume jewellery so it has tarnished but I still love it, it gives it character.

 Navajo print and Stag heads are where it's at kids get on it!

Degraves


   
   
Wildfox maxi dress / Vintage denim vest / Sportsgirl belt / Misuzi initial necklace-Harry & Gretel

Hello lovelies this is Degraves Street, a little hidden gem in the heart of Melbourne. It's full of cute, yummy, little cafes & sweet little boutique stores. It would have to be one of my favourite places in the world. Don't ever get the bed and breakfast deal when you stay in melbourne, because there are so many amazing places to try for breakie. You just have to set out and explore. If you ever find yourself on Devgraves you must go to 'Jungle Juice,' they have the most incredible bagels and their menu's are in children's story books. 
My tartan Wildfox dress and Vintage denim vest are very fitting for a morning down Degraves, they tie in perfectly with the quirky alley ways and all the interesting people that you watch that pass through. It's a must do, so put it on your bucket list!

Tapestry




Mac- Ruby Woo lipstick / Misuzi heart necklace / Bassike tank / Alice in the Eve skirt 

Just a quickie! This is another Tapestry purchase of mine, I think I'm a bit addicted. It all started when I saw the Dolce & Gabbana tapestry outfit and bag on Gary Peppers's blog. If only I had enough money to buy Dolce & Gabbana…I'm too busy paying off my long list of lay-by's at work to spend money any where else at the moment. For those of you who don't know I work at an amazing fashion boutique and I spend my dollars faster then I get them! My pay cheques sort of circulate within the business unfortunately. Hopefully I will do some posts soon with all our new stock! 
ciao for now!

Release the Dogs


Dangerfield dress / Rummage collar / Mimco watch / Converse sneakers 

Rottweilers are scary, but I made an exception for this one he doesn't look so scary. I threw this little dress on for a day of exploring all the little hidden alley ways and streets in Melbourne with Thomas. I love street art, and we were lucky enough to see some art in action. A bunch of graffiti artists were at work down Union Lane. I teamed up this spunky dress with my diamond spike collar, bright orange lips, and my white cons. It's funny in Melbourne I love dressing super quirky and fun! I think I've come to the conclusion that eventually I would like to move over there to live for a while and bring out the arty side of myself. 
I'm having a love affair with a city.
